Multiple Bets - The Accumulator

An ‘accumulator’ bet is one of the most common football wagers made by punters.

An ‘accumulator’ is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those bets winning together. The benefit of an ‘accumulator’ bet is that there are much higher payoffs than placing each individual bet separately although the likelihood of all the selections winning is much lower.

Accumulator bets can be made on a variety of sports or events or even a combination of different sports/events. You can include a large number of selections in your accumulator bet if you wish. (more…)
